Perfect cap for boys, girls, Men & Woman!

I love the way reverse stockinette looks. But in the round… that means row after row of only purls. And if you’re like most, that just sounds like a nightmare. So this gives the effect of purling every row but you don’t have to. I hope your little ones enjoy wearing this cap as much as I hope you enjoy knitting it!
